Overall, Ahri sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Sona. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Sona.

Is Ahri better when played alongside Sona?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Ahri that will always be her #1 synergy. However, overall, Sona is a very typical teammate for Ahri. By playing on the same side as Ahri, she increases their win rate by 0.2% to 48.4%. This clearly indicates that there is a weak strategic relationship between Ahri and Sona that allows them to perform better together than alone.

Sona has a lower difficulty than Ahri. That means you don't need to be very careful when arranging Sona comrades to play with, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

When playing together, Ahri players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Together, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.

Although, by aligning Ahri and Sona together, you will not be giving your side much engage potential. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that helps cover this gap in their kit.

Regardless of your Sona ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
